if you do have a virus and it wont allow you to run a virus scanner you may have to download one then start up in safe mode and run it. lots of tricks to this trade

Every computer has an ISP. The Internet service provider (ISP) is a company that provides access to the Internet. All computers must have an ISP number, otherwise it would not be able to get on the Internet to send emails or whatever. Bee clark has been on the list and been in my address book for quite a while. It sounds like someone hacked into her computer and is using hers so they don't get caught. It could happen to any one of us, they just slip in a hidden Trojan and voila, they send the message from her computer. Hackers are and incorridgeable breed of %&^$#^!!!! Bee, you need to find a program that looks for these types of things. I have been using AVG for a while now and have no more problems with anyone trying to tamper with my computer. AVG recognizes it automatically and locks it in a vault where it cannot get into your drive. You can set it to automatically scan daily if need be, but once a week works for me. Also, what carrier do you use for your email? Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, or others? Mozilla Firefox is what I use and has made a big difference in spam, cookies, hackers, just about anything one can think of for the time. Hope this helps some; and most of the credit for this info goes to my daughter and her boyfriend Mike who knows all about tis stuff. It is what he does for a living. And here is the site to AVG, it also has a free version at this site: http://free.avg.com/us-en/download-avg-anti-virus-free and is the one I use. Good Luck! Peace, Bernie in Texas PS - Hackers are always trying to find new ways to beat the new systems, so try to keep a watch out for that; but between AVG and Firefox I think you'll be all right!
